We did a trial of various antiviruses for use in schools over the space of three months and panda was just appalling, so much so we had to remove it from the trial schools before the 3 months were up. We found Symantec coporate to be the best most comprehensive AV but we ended up going for McaFee ASAP which was a) very cheap and was very simple and fitted our users better.
 
For home use I'd go with norton 2003 and in a network environment I'd use Symantec corporate.

what email program are you using? Symantec Corp. 8 works great for outlook 2k and outlook xp, it also does some others.
